We should really stop working on this game this week, but Betu and I are seriously addicted! :O
A few nasty bugs that should not make their way into the first weekend have been fixed.
We have been talking with you and Valve regarding the Steam Cards. We have requested a change in several different channels, and even though most of what we’ve been told was that “It’s not possible”, apparently card drops are working now.
We don’t know if Valve may revoke the card drops or if it’s all right, so please don’t get mad at us if they do. We are honestly trying our best to solve this issue.
Also, we played the game a lot here at Indie House Brasília last night, and I’m convinced that my combat rebalance at the end of the Beta was a little too hardcore. So I’m reducing enemy damage across the board to make it more accessible to more people.
READ BEFORE HATING: We’re not trying to make the game more casual. We believe “Adventure Mode” should offer a gentler difficulty curve, but a VERY hardcore challenge will wait for you all in Endless mode. So if you think the game is easy now, just you wait. :-)
As usual, I’d like to remind you to follow development in real time at our public board: https://trello.com/b/nM8TWNBR/relic-hunters-zero-open-source
Have a fun weeked!
